Christchurch: His appointment as the coach of the New Zealand cricket team may have been sudden and unexpected, but former India coach John Wright says it was an easy decision to make in the end.
Wright, who coached the Indian cricket team from 2000 to 2005, said it would be a “pretty demanding” job to coach the New Zealand team.
“I thought once Mark [Greatbatch] got the opportunity that’s probably it. My appointment was very sudden and unexpected. But it wasn’t that difficult a choice,” said Wright, who got just 36 hours to take a decision after getting the unexpected call from the New Zealand Cricket.
“To be honest a day into the job you think, given the track record of some of our coaches, it’s a pretty demanding task.
